If you've picked up this volume, you may already be familiar with Achmed Abdullah's work from the first volume, "The Achmed Abdullah Megapack." If not, no harm done; both Megapacks contain short stories which can be read in any order. The only real difference is that Volume 1 contains quite a few supernatural stories, while Volume 2 focuses more on "contemporary" (early 1900s) life in exotic locales, like the Middle East, China, and New York City (primarily in Chinatown). Crime is frequently touched upon; many of these stories qualify as mysteries. Included: THE EVENING RICE THE HATCHETMAN FEUD REPRISAL THE HOME-COMING THE DANCE ON THE HILL THE RIVER OF HATE THE SOUL OF A TURK MORITURI THE JESTER THE STRENGTH OF THE LITTLE THIN THREAD GRAFTER AND MASTER GRAFTER THE LOGICAL TALE OF THE FOUR CAMELS THE TWO-HANDED SWORD BLACK POPPIES THE PERFECT WAY TAO A note for the sensitive: Some of these stories are not "politically correct" by today’s standards. Please keep in mind that Abdullah was writing in a different age, with different standards of propriety. The world has changed a lot in the last 100 years. And if you enjoy this Megapack, please take a look at the many others available...search this ebook store for "Wildside Megapack" to see the list -- mysteries, adventure, horror, science fiction, westerns, humor, and many more subjects and authors are available.

David Herbert Lawrence (1885-1930) was an English writer and poet. His collected works represent, among other things, an extended reflection upon the dehumanising effects of modernity and industrialisation. Some of the issues Lawrence explores are sexuality, emotional health, vitality, spontaneity, and instinct. Lawrence's opinions earned him many enemies and he endured official persecution, censorship, and misrepresentation of his creative work throughout the second half of his life, much of which he spent in a voluntary exile he called his "savage pilgrimage". At the time of his death, his public reputation was that of a pornographer who had wasted his considerable talents. E. M. Forster, in an obituary notice, challenged this widely held view, describing him as "the greatest imaginative novelist of our generation." The philosopher Bertrand Russell characterised Lawrence as a proto-German Fascist. Later, the literary critic F. R. Leavis championed both his artistic integrity and his moral seriousness. This volume collects 13 classic short stories: A MODERN LOVER HER TURN LOVE AMONG THE HAYSTACKS MOTHER AND DAUGHTER NEW EVE AND OLD ADAM RAWDON'S ROOF STRIKE-PAY THE BLUE MOCCASINS THE MORTAL COIL THE OLD ADAM THE OVERTONE THE PRINCESS THE WITCH A LA MODE THINGS If you enjoy this ebook, don't forget to search your favorite ebook store for "Wildside Press Megapack" to see more of the 300+ volumes in this series, covering adventure, historical fiction, mysteries, westerns, ghost stories, science fiction -- and much, much more!
